The advances made in the field of stimuli‐responsive catalysis during the last five years with
a focus on the novel recently‐emerged directions and applications have been surveyed …

Photoswitchable catalysts are becoming attractive materials for catalytic applications
because of their favorable characteristics, such as customizable catalytic activity and …

A pair of enantiomeric photoswitchable PdII catalysts, alkyne‐PdII/LR− azo and alkyne‐
PdII/LS− azo, were prepared via the coordination of alkyne‐PdII and azobenzene‐modified …

Using readily available preallylated aldehydes, we report a simple and divergent synthesis
of cyclic (alkyl)(amino) carbene (CAAC) iminium precursors. Using a combination of …

Practically, all photoswitchable catalysts exhibit residual activity in the OFF state. Herein, we
present a ruthenium initiator with a built-in photoswitch whose metathetical performance is …

A system for the visible-light-controlled ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) of
endo, endo-dicyclopentadiene (DCPD) was developed by combining thermally latent group …

Ruthenium nanoparticles (NPs) immobilized on an amine‐functionalized polymer‐grafted
silica support act as adaptive catalysts for the hydrogenation of bicyclic heteroaromatics …

A new class of photoswitchable NHC ligands, named azImBA, has been developed by
integrating azobenzene into a previously unreported imidazobenzoxazol-1-ylidene …

Since the earliest investigations of olefin metathesis catalysis, light has been the choice for
controlling the catalyst activity on demand. From the perspective of energy efficiency …

The ring-closing metathesis reaction of diene plays an important role in the construction of
cyclic compounds. In this research, density functional theory (DFT) calculations were …
